I don't know if you guys have noticed, but our defence is putting 80% - 85% of the opponents on their backs. I've been watching Jake Friend's tackling specifically and watch how he almost always goes up high, wraps the ball, gets his arms under the opponents so he cant pass but then... watch how he twists and spins them onto their back.
It's almost every tackle we are doing it, the opposition has to get up off their back giving the extra second or so per tackle for our boys to get back to the line.
Robinson has been talking about our defence and we've heard about the tackling and wrestling coaches we have... this is the pay off. Watch the tackles, almost all of them have the opposition on their backs.
On the flip-side... our players are finding their front more often than not, hit the line, either push or get to ground on your front, resulting in faster play the balls, quicker pace per set - thats why every time we get the ball we gain momentum.
